Question

A cube has a mass of 22.4 kg and a side length of 2 m. What is the density of the block? Show your work.

A) 2.8 kg/m³
B) 11.2 kg/m³
C) 22.4 kg/m³
D) 44.8 kg/m³

Answer 1

The density of the cube is 2.8 kg/m³.

Step-by-step explanation:

The density of an object can be calculated by dividing its mass by its volume. In this case, the mass of the cube is 22.4 kg and the volume can be determined by raising the side length to the power of 3. So, the volume is 2^3 m³ = 8 m³. Therefore, the density of the cube is 22.4 kg / 8 m³ = 2.8 kg/m³.
